DISABLE v18

Use the DISABLE procedure to disable a program or a job. The signature of the DISABLE procedure is:

DISABLE(
  <name> IN VARCHAR2,
  <force> IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
  <commit_semantics> IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'STOP_ON_FIRST_ERROR')

Parameters

name

name specifies the name of the program or job that's being disabled.

force

force is accepted for compatibility and ignored.

commit_semantics

commit_semantics tells the server how to handle an error encountered while disabling a program or job. By default, commit_semantics is set to STOP_ON_FIRST_ERROR, which means to stop when an error is encountered. Any programs or jobs that were successfully disabled before the error are committed to disk.

The TRANSACTIONAL and ABSORB_ERRORS keywords are accepted for compatibility and ignored.

Example

The following call to the DISABLE procedure disables a program named update_emp:

DBMS_SCHEDULER.DISABLE('update_emp');
